This fixes the recent reversion that annex.verify is not honored,
because retrieveChunks was passed RemoteVerify baser, but baser
did not have export/import set up.

This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
This avoids all the complication about redundant work discussed in
the previous try at fixing this. At the expense of needing each command
that could have the problem to be patched to simply wrap the action in
onlyActionOn once the key is known. But there do not seem to be many
such commands.
onlyActionOn' should not be used with a CommandStart (or CommandPerform),
although the types do allow it. onlyActionOn handles running the whole
CommandStart chain. I couldn't immediately see a way to avoid mistken
use of onlyActionOn'.

After a false start, I found a fairly non-intrusive way to deal with it.
Although it only handles transfers -- there may be issues with eg
concurrent dropping of the same key, or other operations.
There is no added overhead when -J is not used, other than an added
inAnnex check. When -J is used, it has to maintain and check a small
Set, which should be negligible overhead.
It could output some message saying that the transfer is being done by
another thread. Or it could even display the same progress info for both
files that are being downloaded since they have the same content. But I
opted to keep it simple, since this is rather an edge case, so it just
doesn't say anything about the transfer of the file until the other
thread finishes.
Since the deferred transfer action still runs, actions that do more than
transfer content will still get a chance to do their other work. (An
example of something that needs to do such other work is P2P.Annex,
where the download always needs to receive the content from the peer.)
And, if the first thread fails to complete a transfer, the second thread
can resume it.
But, this unfortunately means that there's a risk of redundant work
being done to transfer a key that just got transferred.
That's not ideal, but should never cause breakage; the same
thing can occur when running two separate git-annex processes.
The get/move/copy/mirror --from commands had extra inAnnex checks added,
inside the download actions. Without those checks, the first thread
downloaded the content, and then the second thread woke up and
downloaded the same content redundantly.
move/copy/mirror --to is left doing redundant uploads for now. It
would need a second checkPresent of the remote inside the upload
to avoid them, which would be expensive. A better way to avoid
redundant work needs to be found..

There was confusion in different parts of the progress bar code about
whether an update contained the total number of bytes transferred, or the
number of bytes transferred since the last update. One way this bug
showed up was progress bars that seemed to stick at zero for a long time.
In order to fix it comprehensively, I add a new BytesProcessed data type,
that is explicitly a total quantity of bytes, not a delta.
Note that this doesn't necessarily fix every problem with progress bars.
Particularly, buffering can now cause progress bars to seem to run ahead
of transfers, reaching 100% when data is still being uploaded.
Now there's a Config type, that's extracted from the git config at startup.
Note that laziness means that individual config values are only looked up
and parsed on demand, and so we get implicit memoization for all of them.
So this is not only prettier and more type safe, it optimises several
places that didn't have explicit memoization before. As well as getting rid
of the ugly explicit memoization code.
Not yet done for annex.<remote>.* configuration settings.
It compiles. It sorta works. Several subcommands are FIXME marked and
broken, because things that used to accept separate --backend and --key
params need to be changed to accept just a --key that encodes all the key
info, now that there is metadata in keys.
Converted Key to a real data type and caught all the places where I used
an unconverted filename as a key.
Had to loose some sanity checks around whether something is already
annexed, but I guess I can add those back other ways.
